About Samantha
LCSW in Florida with 20 years of clinical experience, Samantha Schwartz helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma, and addictions. She focuses on practical work that addresses mood, panic, grief, parenting strains, and life transitions.
Samantha uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to guide sessions. She listens for what matters most to each person and then helps them try clearer ways of thinking, coping, and behaving. Sessions often include conversational work and specific strategies for symptom relief and day-to-day functioning.
She regularly supports people facing divorce and separation, family-of-origin issues, and communication problems. Her practice also takes on concerns such as process addictions, drug and alcohol addiction, pregnancy and childbirth related stress, and workplace difficulties. Samantha pays attention to how attachment patterns and shame can shape current relationships and decisions.
Her approach balances practical tools with open listening. For example, CBT techniques may be used to address panic attacks or persistent worry, while Client-Centered moments are used to clarify values and goals. The clinician aims to help clients notice unhelpful patterns and test small changes between sessions.
Sessions are conducted in English and reflect two decades of practice in Florida. Samantha describes her work as collaborative and straightforward: she helps people identify priorities, practice new skills, and adjust plans as needs change.

How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. In online sessions this means the therapist prioritizes the client's own concerns and helps them clarify goals and values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) emphasizes identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. When used online, CBT sessions include practical exercises, thought records, and specific behavior experiments to try between meetings.Deciding on the best approach is collaborative. The therapist will work with the client to match methods to the client’s concerns, goals, and preferences. That may mean starting with a Client-Centered conversation and adding CBT techniques later, or combining both across sessions based on what is proving helpful.
Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also support steady progress through regular appointments and homework between meetings.
